Dear list, Klaus Knopper replaced KDE by LXDE to reduce startup time (especially for netbooks), and thus I have been using this new desktop environment for some weeks, now.
I've always been a big fan of KDE (and contributed within my possibilities to the KDE project), but I also like the lite and yet comfortable appearance of LXDE. Especially for less powerfull hardware, this desktop is a real alternative. The backdraw must be mentioned: While the desktop comes up very quickly, many stuff is only loaded just in time (causing pauses during work); this includes sub-menues of the start menu, and of course libraries and daemons (qt/DCOP for instance). Regarding the LTSP usecase, most services have been started right beforehand, anyway, so popcon should tell us more - and of course, your personal comment to this thread ;) Thanks, Regards Ralf. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
